Reply To: Remove unused scripts/styles

Well, I realized that much, I was looking for specifics – something like a list of the styles and scripts used.

I understand for example, that ACF itself uses the select2 plugin in the admin in several cases, but I don’t get why this is loaded through the acf_form_head function in the frontend – in an ideal workflow, the plugin would somehow manage to see which field types are used and load the necessary scripts. On top of that having additional options on ‘heavy’ components – like the Repeater – to toggle on/off features not required, eg the sortable function or remove the tooltips.

..since this is not the case, I am willing to try by the good’ol’ trial-and-error method to see what works and what breaks in my frontend.

Any pointers to specific script/style handles will be appreciated!
